How Local Bookstores Are Helping Immigrants Amid ICE Fears

  • On Friday, the Los Angeles Police Department detained five individuals during protests against immigration enforcement in the downtown area amid continuous ICE operations in Southern California.
  • These events occurred during a wave of enforcement following ICE's operation that arrested more than 1,600 immigrants for deportation since June, sparking widespread community fear.
  • Local bookstores like Underdog, now a nonprofit, have responded by providing groceries, holding fundraisers, and offering spaces for immigrant support amid cancelled events.
  • About 1,000 people participated in Saturday’s 15-mile Run Against ICE through Los Angeles to peacefully protest raids and deportations during the 30-day Summer of Resistance campaign.
  • These actions reflect community solidarity and a call to end ICE raids, emphasizing the need for safety, dignity, and freedom for undocumented and documented immigrants alike.
